High-risk securities with a small market capitalization, such as those that trade in and around the one dollar mark, have seen high trading volumes in the past few months, largely because of retail investor interest. These growth stocks may attract even more attention in the next few weeks as a new variant of COVID-19 fuels uncertainty at the market and investors patiently wait for the outcome of a Federal Reserve meeting. Business Insider reports that on December 14, the Dow Jones slipped 0.05%, the S&P 500 fell 0.22%, and the Nasdaq dipped 0.53%.
Even though institutional investors may be more inclined towards finding safe haven in value equities through the upcoming storm, the spending patterns of retail investors would suggest that cheap high-growth options will continue to attract the Reddit crowd, regardless of the macroeconomic environment. In 2020, many of these retail investors got their start at the market during the COVID-19 lockdowns to wade off “boredom”. As the threat of another lockdown looms, these investors are likely to invest in the market with renewed focus.
Interest in cheaper growth options has also grown because companies like Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL), Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT), Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN), and Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) have reached valuations that many analysts term “unsustainable”.
In late September, Michael Burry, of The Big Short fame, said that the recent rally in tech growth stocks reminded him of the “dotcom bubble”. He further compared the options-trading frenzy to the rampant speculation before the Great Depression.
The spread of the new virus variant has ramifications for the global economy. The seven-day moving average of virus cases in the United Kingdom has reached the highest level since July 2020, the peak of the virus crisis. Asian stocks are down as well, with Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida hinting at the introduction of guidelines to companies on share buybacks. The concern around the meeting of the Federal Reserve has also pushed the prices of cryptocurrencies lower, with Bitcoin dropping close to 3%.
Investors who want to profit from this slowdown could pick up growth stocks on the cheap, using the market shift towards value plays in their favor. Cathie Wood, one of the most popular growth investors, has already doubled down on her bets on high growth options even as other hedge fund managers load up on safer options. One of the best ways of gaining exposure to the stock market is through investments in cheap growth stocks. Some of the best one dollar equities in this regard are discussed below.
